Fishing, Boating, and Sailing

Sailing is one of Charleston's favorite year-round sports with regattas sponsored during the season by the College of Charleston and area yacht clubs. Fishing opportunities are abundant whether from a chartered boat for deep-sea fishing, a local pier, or the surf. Freshwater fishing is at its best in Berkeley County's Lake Moultrie and Lake Marion, highly regarded by the nation's recreational fishermen. Crabbing and shrimping are also popular leisure time activities. Endless creeks and rivers provide the best boating, waterskiing, or just exploring available in South Carolina. Public boat landings abound in the Metro area with Charleston being home to some of the finest marinas along the Intracoastal Waterway.

Golf is one of Charleston's most popular sports. From Patroit's Point Golf Course to the nationally ranked course at Wild Dunes, there is a course for everyone. Tennis can be found at private residential clubs, as well as in the city's parks. Numerous invitational tournaments throughout the Metro area attract pro players, and also involve local residents. Novice swim teams, formed in neighborhood pools, are extremely popular with young people.
